A deb package is a ar (shell archive) file. "ar -x" will unarchive it.
You can do this in a temporary directory and select files to your

This one worked perfectly right out of the box. With the added value
that I can supply a seperator on the command line :) and the
disadvantage that I have no clue, what the code is actually doing :( [1]

to the modem pool but I never receive an ip address. My first concern
is that I see ppp0 as a device (ifconfig) even before my modem connects
to the modem pool. Needless

I prefer upgrading the kernel by downloading the source, do a make

_install
After that I copy the bzImage to /boot, edit my lilo.conf, run lilo and
I'm ready to boot again. I don't throw away old kernel,
